  1. Unit 2 • Gender Biases & Electricity • Module 5 • The Creative • Parent’s Toolbox

  2. Growth Mindset • Fixed Mindset • What you will learn

  3. Picture an Engineer!

  4. Is this what you pictured?

  5. Or this?

  6. When we meet someone for the first time we judge them by: • the way they look • the way they dress • the way they speak • their mannerisms • We build a view about them that can guide the ways we interact with them. • Growth Mindset • Fixed Mindset • Attitudes towards people

  7. Our initial evaluation of people is done very quickly and the impressions that we develop tend to be lasting ones. • This is the Primacy Effect. • Even though the first impression may not be accurate, it can still be lasting. • Growth Mindset • Fixed Mindset • The Primacy Effect

  8. When we evaluate people we do so by fitting them into a category based on what we know of people and the world. • This is called Stereotyping. • All individuals in the category have the same characteristics (in our mind). • Growth Mindset • Fixed Mindset • Categories become stereotypes

  9. It is not possible for us to intimately know everyone we meet. • So our brains use stereotypes to give us a general system to guide our interactions with others. • Growth Mindset • Fixed Mindset • Our brains use Stereotypes as a short-cut

  10. When we stereotype someone, we ignore their individuality, how she may be different. • We ignore all information about the individual that does not fit the stereotypical image we have of them already. So if a girl says “I want to become a firefighter”, we will not hear that if we think girls should only play with dolls. • Growth Mindset • Fixed Mindset • Problems with Stereotypes

  11. “Like a girl”

  12. A child sees 25,000 ads a year - when her mind is most sensitive

  13. Growth Mindset • Fixed Mindset • “A girl is not defined by what society sees in her. She is defined by what she sees in herself” -- Girl Rising

  14. Electricity

  15. How small are atoms? • In nature . . .

  16. How small are atoms? • In cities . . .

  17. How small are atoms? • All over Earth

  18. How small are atoms? • This is an atom • Electricity starts in an atom

  19. How small are atoms? • How small are atoms? • Well, this ant is made up of billions!

  20. Let's get an even deeper understanding of the size of atoms! • How small are atoms?

  21. How small are atoms? • Electrons jump from atom to atom!

  22. How small are atoms? • Electricity in action! • Insert animation made by cris for Rob’s video

  23. Electric • Current

  24. How small are atoms? • Electricity in a circuit

  25. How small are atoms? • Electricity explained!

  26. How small are atoms? • How do we control electricity?

  27. Examples of Conductors... • So, what is a conductor?

  28. Examples of Conductors...

  29. Then, what is an insulator? what is an insulator? • So, what is a conductor? • It’s plastic!

  30. Can you think of other insulators? • Examples of Insulators...

  31. How do we • get electricity?

  32. How small are atoms? • We generate it!

  33. Let’s review! • Let’s Review... Electricity is everywhere Electrons moving from atom to atom = electricity We can control electricitythrough a circuit There are many ways to generate electricity

  34. Congratulations! • You just finished the fifth module!

  35. Here are two design challenges you can do • Let’s invent!
